Celebrating a life well lived. I will cherish the memories forever. I remember coming over, to pick up Rafaela, and the living room was set a certain way. I came back a week later, and the whole living room was rearranged. I asked Rafaela, if something happened? And Rafaela responded with "My mom is just trying a new configuration. She was bored with the old one and is trying something new." I do that even now! To keep it fresh, I rearrange the furniture. Thank you for teaching me to not be afraid to try new things. Love to all the family. I wish I was able to come to see you all again, especially Rafaela, Gloria and Susie. I hope this anecdote helps with the grieving process for you all.

Hope God gives you and your family the strength you need during this difficult time. Your mom raised an awesome daughter, Gloria. Lots of prayers for you and your dad. 

Erika and I will try to make it next week.

You were an amazing woman who left an incredible legacy. Thank you for Gloria and her children; they have made my life infinitely better, I know your love and influence lives on through them. May your loved ones find peace until they can be with you again.

Dearest Lily, thank you so much for blessing us with your beautiful children and grandchildren. Also, you were always just so stinkin' sweet to me and I'm so grateful for that. You're life changed the world and made it a better place. Breathe well in paradise, until we meet again. XO

Prayers for you and your family at this time, Gloria. We wish we were there to comfort you. Love you - Scott and Erica

Thinking of you all Gloria prayers for your family love you and tommy be strong  she's there watching over you all.

Let the love of Christ overwhelm this family as you bring this beautiful woman into your arms, in Jesus name I pray this Amen

I never got to personally meet you but through my friendship with your daughter, I have felt your heart, your love and your joy. Your legacy shines on through your amazing family. I am praying for you Gloria, trusting that God will sustain you, your dad and the rest of your family today and always. May His joy ever be your strength. May His peace comfort you in the moments of sadness. May your hope in Him never wane. Love and blessings now and forever.
